    A very good dungeon crawler that will definitely scratch that nostalgia-itch. Lots of depth to customisation, very rewarding combat.

    Story however is quite generic and uninspired, and the noises the Chocobo makes during cut-scenes are diabolical and far too cutesy for my liking. I'm 27 years old and find this quite annoying and there is no option to mute or change the voice audio.

    The years have passed and Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon returns with little improvements to our Switch and PS4 platforms. The rogue-like genre has better games on this generation, but the game can appeal to the Final Fantasy fans anyway.

    It is worth it because of the engaging gameplay and the steep challenge provided and because of the ability to play in coop. The level of difficulty will lead to a couple of unfair situations and graphically speaking this is a pretty lazy rehash of an older title. The game is pretty expensive too and load times are surprisingly very long. If you can accept these issues then you'll have a good time with this game regardless. But oh boy, we just can't get used to that name!

    Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon: Every Buddy is a solid Mystery Dungeon game with a good amount of content. It, unfortunately, sticks to a somewhat repetitive gameplay loop and, even with a few challenge dungeons with unique rulesets, can get a little stale. I still enjoyed my time with Chocobo, and Mystery Dungeon fans will find something to enjoy here, but the appeal to a broader Final Fantasy fanbase might be a bit more narrow.
